Here is the bug: https://github.com/nose-devs/nose/issues/817
No further activitity (neither on the bug nor on the repo) since my report
But I think this is a bug in python, either in the core or in the xml module
used by nose. nose probably only trigger the issue in the underlying
xml code written in c.
